iPod movie bliss

Since I've been home for work recently, I've taken the opportunity to put some video's on my iPod so I have something to watch. I had movies before on my iPod but most of them were action movies for the most part. The one that got the most play with The Godfather but I needed more comedies so this week I converted a few of my DVD's to iPod format. I bought some software a long time ago that would do the conversion (I know, strange notion, I actually bought software) but its been working really well, much better than the normal freebie software that I use.

My library is getting quite extensive, but I'm also starting to run out of hard drive space on my computer. I can't load all my movies on my iPod because I don't have the space, I need a lot of space for the mountains of music that I own. I've seen the new iPods and I'm not yet all that impressed. I dont' want to buy all new accessories and it doesn't look like the new iPod touch will be easy to use in the car.

Now I'll have something to watch on the plane Sunday evening when I go to Houston for my client. There are good things and bad things about leaving for the client on Sunday, the bad thing of course is that I get to spend less time at home with my wife and cats, the good thing is that I get to dress like a schlub instead of wearing my work clothes and heading straight to the client site and I won't feel all messed up when I show up for work on Monday morning.
